Description

Everyone knows good startups start with good design. These days even vulnerabilities become known (and addressed) only if they have good graphic design. Have you heard of CVE-2004-1315? Nope, but I'm certain you know of Heartbleed. Graphic design. What does all graphic design have in common? That's right, color. Enter the Any Colored Button.

you did a great job making this alight motion program object I want to embed it with my webpage you can see here,alightmotionapkdl.com/

Are you sure? yes | no

you should check out the APA102C LED it uses two wires for serial but can be updated much faster than the neopixel can.

Are you sure? yes | no

Not sure what the benefit would be. It's only a single LED so update time isnt' an issue and at present I'm only running 3 wires total (DIN, VCC, GND). But, I'll check those out regardless for potential future use. Thanks for the tip!

Are you sure? yes | no

Read up on those LEDs, they seem cool. I suddenly want to do a POV project.

Are you sure? yes | no
